Looking at the cannotlaunch. txt file, at the very top 7400m is listed, someome will correct me if I am wrong, but that looks like you have a Radeon 7400m in the altop along with the Intel HD graphics.

Whats the make/model of the laptop? Asd this will help me identityfy exactly whats inside including which Intel GPU.

This system does not allow the minimum system requirements to install this program

Guess, the drivers are at fault than. Sorry for bothering everyone.

Will have to wait until desktop PC works to see how 2.06 works.

As I can tell, they've customized that driver to lockout older CPU's with HD2xxx\3xxx graphics. I think you have the latest available driver

other than hacking the driver Biker provided.

Not that it is a long term solution but let's try disabling lightgem processing:

seta tdm_lg_weak "1"

and sound

seta s_noSound "1"

seta s_volume "0"

seta s_playDefaultSound "0" (this should always be off)

seta s_playDefaultSound "1"

It was set to "1" not "0".

Now TDM works and loads completely. Will try to mess if these are the only settings that prevent to load missions.

As far as I understand all driver updates are within an .exe. Upon extracting all files the latest updater determined that my system doesn't fit the system requirements for this driver. After extraction and before installation. That means that the updater determines if it wants the driver on the system?​ The InstallShield Wizard.

My laptop seems to be a Sixth generation graphics processor because it's a Celeron B830.

From the link you gave me, instructions link to the same list I used to get the latest drivers. I'll try to narrow down the search and see what comes.

Update 21:20

None of those drivers will install for the same reason that the system is outdated. I guess the stock driver finder knows better.

FWIW, latest drivers are not a solution to all the problems. Especially with GPU drivers, vendors like Nvidia tend to make things worse for cards they think of as "old" or "obsolete". If you have problems with reference drivers you got with your GPU, sure, try newer ones, but you don't have to update them just because a new version is out.

According to Intel, the B830 is "Sandy Bridge" with "Intel® HD Graphics for 2nd Generation Intel® Processors":

According to Intel, the B830 is "Sandy Bridge" with "Intel® HD Graphics for 2nd Generation Intel® Processors":

thus you already have the latest available driver: 15.28.24.4229

unless you hack another driver that supports HD2xxx graphics to work with your processor.

And the issue with this GPU is intel & microshaft have made it very hard to upgrade the driver or even find a driver for this model. And it looks like there isnt an intel made Windows 10 driver if the following link is correct - https://downloadcent...ntel-Processors

Check his Dxiag, he has 9.17.10.4229 - but again this could be the Windows 10 built in version.

There dosen't appear to be an updated HD 2000 driver for windows 10, only 8.1 and below. But as I mentioned in a previous post you maybe able to manually install the driver. So -

click on the Intel driver link from a few posts above and download load the .zip file instead of the .exe and then unpack that zip to a folder on your desktop.

Right click on "This PC" and the click on properties from the pulldown and then click on "create a restore point" and name it "before Biker's ill fated manual driver install debacle"

right click on "this PC" and select properties.

then go to device manager and browser to display adapters.

then right click on that and select update driver, then click on update driver.

then on the window that opened up, "browse my computer for a driver"

then click on ~"let me choose from a list", then click on have disk.

then click on have disk and browser to the folder on your desktop and inside that click on a folder called graphics.

then if you should see a list of intel gpu's, find and click on HD 2000, it will complain but ignore it.

reboot and see if it the manual driver install takes! if it does then you will have a batter driver than you currently have with newer OpenGL support.

if it didn't then you can do a system restore with the above restore point.

Probably it is the best idea to disable everything except one set of speakers.

3. After that launch game and check these lines in console:

If I am right, you won't see disabled devices here anymore.

4. Try to run mission again.

I think "Realtek High Definition Audio" is the device that should be used.

The other devices look as either virtual or recording...

Yes, other devices are the microphone and the stock speakers from the laptop. If I understood correctly s_nosound to zero has to be in autoexec.cfg? Because Darkmod.cfg has no such setting. In this case it did not help.

Only turning off all devices lets the FM load and play.

OK, here goes!
